"Wish Fulfillment"

Picture if you will, a mountain high on top of the world
with a sharp cliff that provides an excellent jump to your
death. There are three men standing by this cliff and
remarking at what a long way down it is.

Suddenly, a good fairy appears and says: "Good gentlemen,
I will give you one wish. As you jump off this cliff, call out your
wish, and I will grant you your wish and safe passage to
ground level."

So, the first man, who by the way was Italian, took a running
start and jumped off the cliff. As he plummeted to almost
certain human death, he called out, "An IROC CAMARO with
big fuzzy dice hanging in the window and a gorgeous girl to
go along."

And just as the good fairy promised, he landed safely in
between his new "car" and gorgeous blond girl, where he
proceeded to run from one to the other, not knowing which
one to kiss first.

The second man, being an East Indian by the name of Raj,
saw what happened to the Italian Stallion and ran off the cliff
happily screaming with his distinctive accent: "Riches and fame."

It was a short and simple request, but that was all the English
he could handle while jumping off a cliff. Well, low and behold
as he reaches the bottom safely he is swarmed by dozens of
adoring fans, while a limousine full of money arrives to pick
him up.

Well, the last fellow was a short, stout fellow from a faraway
place (fill in a desired location of ridicule here). The person was
so impressed at how the other two gentlemen had prospered in
life that he gave grave and careful thought to what he would
say as he plummeted off the cliff at break neck speeds. So,
he began to run, and just as he neared the edge of the cliff he
tripped on a stone and fell off the cliff, yelling with disgust:

"Sh*t!!!"

And thus, he safely landed.

"Three Travelers"

Three travelers, an American, a Russian, and an Egyptian,
were circumnavigating the globe a la Jules Verne. The
Russian man put his hand out and reached down into
the clouds.

"Aaah!" he said. "We're right over my homeland."

"How can you tell?" asked the American.

"I can feel the cold air." he replied.

A few days later the African man put his hand through
the clouds.

"Aah we're right over my homeland." he said.

"How do you know that?" asked the Russian.

"I can feel the heat of the desert."

Several more days later the American put his hand
through the clouds.

"Aah, we're right over New York." The Russian and
the African were amazed.

"How do you know all of that?!" they exclaimed.

The American pulled his hand in and held it up for them
to see. "My watch is missing."
